| This is from the exit of the Rhone River in the Mediterranean "Where outgassing was fogging the sonar....it's called geoclutter." This mud slides smoothly on porcelain and reveals even-subtle surface changes in the terrain of the underlying clay. On stoneware it makes branching patterns as it rides on the coarse texture of the varied particle sizes that force it to make choices as it flows. |

| 5" x 3.25" Porcelain This sediment shows details of clay in the form underneath by how it slides and pools and breaks over ridges -- words about it say, "R/V Oceanus - Mediterranean at exit of Rhone - where outgassing makes geoclutter." Foot glazed with black slip glaze. | | | 8" wide x 1.5" high "Outgassing was fogging the sonar," said Terry Barber when he passed me this mud after a cruise of R/V Oceanus, "It made geoclutter." I know it to be a warm slightly patterned and almost-predictable glaze, as it is here. | ||
